Definition: How long it takes for the light emitted from the screen to fade to one-tenth of its original brightness.
Effect on Refresh Rates: Lower persistence needs higher refresh rates to avoid flicker, making it suitable for animations. Higher persistence is good for static or complex images.
Resolution:
Definition: Indicates the maximum number of points (dots or pixels) that can be displayed on the screen without overlapping.
Factors: Determined by the type of phosphor, intensity to be displayed, and the focusing/deflection systems in the display.
Measured: Points per centimeter horizontally and vertically.
Aspect Ratio:
Definition: The ratio of vertical points to horizontal points, ensuring equal length lines in both directions on the screen.
Example: A 4/5 aspect ratio means a vertical line with four points has the same length as a horizontal line with five points.
